Since 1996, technology industry executives, investors, and strategists have valued the Red Herring 100 lists as an instrument for discovering and highlighting the exciting startups from around the world. This years edition, celebrating cutting edge ventures, is taking place in Amsterdam and according to the words of Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring:

It was rewarding, beyond all expectations. The global economic situation has abated and there are many great companies producing really innovative and amazing products. We had a very difficult time narrowing the pool and selecting the finalists. Now we’re faced with the difficult task of selecting the Top 100 winners of Red Herring Europe. We know that the 2013 crop will grow into some amazing companies that are sure to make an impact.

Red Herring’s judges looked into the originality of Cleeng concept, our growth rate and integration in the respective markets, as well as our social contribution and the international footprint. Based on 20 main quantitative and qualitative rigorous criteria, Cleeng has been chosen from among hundreds of ventures across entire Europe!

That’s a tremendous success for our hard working team and yet another proof for disruptive approach of the content monetizing solutions we offer – says Gilles Domartini, CEO of Cleeng – we look forward to being a part of this great event and to discuss innovative ideas with others. But most of all – we’re excited about presenting our unique product and also the talented team behind its success. Red Herring’s Top 100 is another proof for the leading position in the European tech sector that we’ve been working towards since 2011.

Red Herring event will bring together 250 C-level technology entrepreneurs, corporate strategists, and venture financiers from across the continent. The Finalists are invited to present their winning strategies at the Red Herring Europe Forum in Amsterdam, April 8-10, 2013. The Top 100 winners will be announced at a special awards ceremony, the evening of April 10.
